Soft drinks for breakfast?

In the battle over sugary soft drinks, some fast food restaurants are refusing to budge. In fact, they're offering the sweet, caffeinated drinks with the "most important meal of the day": breakfast!

For those of you who dread the taste of coffee and prefer a soft drink to get a burst of energy in the morning, this may seem like a good thing, but plenty of health advocates are questioning whether soft drinks should be served up first thing in the morning.

Recently, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg and the mayor of Cambridge, Massachusetts moved to limit the size of soft drinks. No one needs drinks with added sugar "any time," Hope Warshaw, author of Guide to Healthy Restaurant Eating, told USA Today.

The newspaper reports Steak 'n Shake is offering a free breakfast taco with a $1.79 purchase of a 28-ounce Coca Cola, 6 a.m. to 11 a.m., through July 11th. A Facebook coupon is required. The company declined to comment.

Some Taco Bells in California are testing a new product it's calling MTN Dew AM, a mix of orange juice and Mountain Dew. It told USA Today it's responding to consumer demands. Sonic is promoting its .99 cent fountain drinks in the morning, but did not comment about the promotion.
